A dark light flashed in Han Tao's eyes, he slowly walked out of the group, bowed to Xiangyu, and said respectfully: "The lower official is here, what does the son command?"

Xiangyu looked at Han Tao: "There have been no ghosts and monsters in Jigu Mountain for decades, but today something went wrong, this flower garden is heavily guarded, how did the ghost come in, and it is also a ghost who is used to eating human flesh, Han Patriarch, why don't you come to judge for me, how about it?"

"Since it is entrusted by the son, the lower official will not disgrace his mission!"

Han Tao is the general of the leading army of Zheng Erpin, who is in charge of the palace guard, and the Sushui Courtyard is a royal palace, so it is reasonable to let Han Tao deal with this matter.

Han Tao immediately summoned the guards and asked them to guard the entrances and exits of the flower garden, and they were not allowed to let anyone or ghosts go out.

He then summoned another group of guards to investigate the clues left by the red-eyed ghost in the flower garden and the places he passed.

After the false alarm, the clans sat back on their seats, and the palace maids served tea and incense, alarming the nobles, and quietly waiting for the guards to come.

Soon, several guards who were searching for clues came back and presented the clues they had found one by one.

The clues are clear and numerous, and there is no sign of being deliberately concealed.

The source of everything points to the quiet dwelling where Sheng Shuiyu is located.

It was surprisingly easy to detect this matter, Han Tao walked up to Xiangyu, bowed down and said: "Childe, it has been found out that the upper-level ghost is the protégé ghost raised by Sheng Sangongzi in the Sheng Mansion, this time the student will enter the Jinghuai Residence of the Sushui Villa with the Third Prince of Sheng, and the Jinghuai Residence found a large number of pieces of living human flesh that were cut and frozen with ice cubes, and the ghost should have been fed with human flesh by Sheng Sangongzi for a long time to be afraid of humans." ”

What Han Tao said confirmed the previous guess of Mian Liang and others.

Sheng Shuiyu, who was named, did not stand up, but the person who came out was Sheng Wuyu.

Sheng Wuyu's steps are still vain, his face is withered and full of obscenity, he just killed a noble son of the Yan clan in the room at noon, causing an uproar, and now he doesn't know what to show.

Xiangyu's eyes were cold, and he called out: "Yin Heng." ”

Yin Heng flashed: "Childe." ”

Xiangyu suddenly stretched out his hand, pulled out the ebony sword that Yin Heng was hanging from his waist, and then walked up to Sheng Wuyu with the sword, and the tip of the sword was against Sheng Wuyu's neck.

A sound of fright rang out all around.

"Even if I kill you now, I don't dare to say anything more about your father and people. Xiangyu's cold voice revealed a rare killing intent.

Sheng Wuyu wanted to pretend to be calm, but he found that no matter how strong his heart was and how powerful he was disguised, he couldn't do it at all in front of Xiangyu's powerful extravagance.

His eyelashes couldn't help but tremble again and again, and he replied: "You are the jade prince, who dares to stop what you want to do." ”

Xiangyu's hand holding the sword moved slightly, Sheng Wuyu's eyelids twitched violently, and a deep fear flashed on his face.

He hurriedly said, "Yu Gongzi, the gambling appointment has not yet arrived, have you forgotten?"

Xiangyu's slightly moving hand paused, and the next moment, he withdrew his hand.

The hand holding the ebony sword hung down and rested it on one side.

"You've already lost. Xiangyu said to Sheng Wuyu, and at the same time returned the ebony sword to Yin Heng.

As soon as the night is over, the gambling period will be invalid.

Sheng Wuyu smiled bitterly: "Yes, the lower officials are convinced." ”

The red-eyed ghost was released by him to Sheng Shuiyu, which was a dangerous move, and it was also the last round of his bet with Xiangyu.

He lost again.

Gong Xiyue stood up and said very dissatisfiedly: "Young Master Yu, are you just going to forget it, Sheng San Gongzi released that man-eating ghost to make trouble, but he almost ate Yan Xiaogongzi and Mian Li, how to calculate this account?"

"Yu Gongzi didn't say anything, you are the eldest lady of the Gong clan, what can you do here?" Sheng Shuiyu stabbed Gong Xiyue coldly.

"What's wrong with the young lady of the Gong clan? You did something wrong, and you didn't let anyone say it?" a young man's voice suddenly came from not far away.

Everyone followed the prestige, but saw a mediocre-looking young man walking slowly towards them in the moonlight and the faint light of several hanging lamps.

"Big brother, why are you back?!" Gong Xiyue shouted happily, and the whole person had already rushed to the young man and threw himself into his arms.

Gong Yun smiled and looked at Gong Xiyue in her arms, reached out to stroke her hair with doting eyes, and said softly: "I'm not here these days, but you're messing around again?"

Gong Xiyue withdrew from Gong Yun's arms, stood up straight, and smiled weakly.

The two siblings walked back to Xiangyu together.

Gongyun stepped forward, knelt on his knees, and bowed to Xiangyu: "Respectfully, see Childe." ”

Xiangyu raised her hand and motioned for respectfully to get up.

Gong Yun straightened up and said to Xiangyu with a smile: "In the days when I left Yin'an, whether it was humans or ghosts along the way, they were all saying that Yu Gongzi's temperament has changed since he received a sacrifice. ”

Although at first glance it sounds like he is mocking Xiangyu for a ghost sacrifice in a strange way, his attitude is polite, his speech and demeanor are really ordinary, and his eyes are clear and frank without a trace of distraction.

It invisibly gives the impression that "he will not be the kind of person who deliberately satirizes others".

In other words, he is plain from appearance to demeanor, but it is the plainness here and there, mixed together, that gives birth to a strange temperament in him, which makes people trust, convinc, or reassure him without reason.

Xiangyu had dealt with Gongyun before, and he knew that his words were frank, and he really didn't mean anything else.

Xu is because of the neutral attitude that the Gong clan has adhered to for hundreds of years, and no children from the clan have entered the court, so it is because Xiangyu rarely patiently exchanged simple greetings with him.

This time Gong Yun is a single person back to Yin'an, in the past few months he has been with the former Gong patriarch, Gong Moqiu, who is now alone all year round, to collect wind and enjoy the scenery, and he has been swimming for a while.

Originally, he was going to stay outside for a little longer, but after receiving a secret message from the messengers, he had plans to return early.

Gongyun turned to look at Sheng Wuyu on the side, and after greeting each other, Gongyun took the lead and said: "A few months ago, I heard that my little sister accidentally used the wrong magic weapon on the way to Jin Valley, and accidentally killed several ghost deterrent masters in your mansion on the way to Shanda, and I was deeply disturbed. ”

Accidental injury?

It wasn't a mistake, Miss Gong threw down a magic weapon, but she directly wiped out an entire team of ghost deterres, including a ghost deterrent master who had entered the hermit cultivation level.

I don't know if this Gong son said this on purpose, or if he really remembered it wrongly.

Sheng Wuyu looked at Gong Yun with a smile and didn't say anything.
